nixpkgs: take Nixpkgs path from argument
This removes the dependency on the `nixpkgs` channel within the
modules for state version ≥ 20.09. The default Nixpkgs source starting
from this state version is the path of the `pkgs` argument used to
bootstrap the Home Manager modeuls.
This is a prerequisite for using Home Manager withing Nix flakes.
